Infernal Artist

"Are you willing to stay in the palace to accompany and protect the princess?" the emperor asked.

Liu Ping cupped his fists and said, "You must ask my master about this first."

There was a trace of admiration in the emperor's eyes, and he turned to look at Li Qianyang.

Li Qianyang smiled and cupped his hands and said: "My disciple is at a critical period of improving his strength. Your Majesty wants to keep him in the palace. Can you take care of him for me?"

The emperor asked Liu Ping again: "Are you willing to stay with the princess until she comes of age?"

"Yes." Liu Ping said.

"There are no jokes before you, Liu Ping, you have to think about it carefully." A headmaster next to him reminded.

Liu Ping cupped his hands and said: "The princess is the last bloodline of the royal family. It is related to the stability of the world. Of course I will do my best."

The emperor said with satisfaction: "In that case, I will designate you as a royal guard. You will accompany the princess on weekdays. You will receive the salary of a first-class imperial guard and be granted permission to go back to Cangshan Mountain to practice."

As soon as these words came out, Liu Ping clearly saw many people showing envy.

Li Qianyang glanced at him and whispered: "Why don't you thank me quickly?"

Liu Ping knew that the so-called Guizang Mountain must be a good place, and he quickly saluted:

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."

Sudden--

There were bursts of violent chirping sounds from deep in the night sky, which sounded like the chirping of insects magnified countless times.

Everyone looked up.

The emperor sneered and said: "Don't worry, everyone, now the power of the five elements has been rekindled, and I have also set up an ancient barrier. No matter what evil thing comes, it will not be good."

A headmaster hesitated and said: "Your Majesty, are you too optimistic? Can the ancient enchantment definitely be able to resist evil?"

The emperor showed a secretive expression, looked up at the sky, and said softly: "Just watch."

The chirping of insects in the sky became more intense.

Sudden.

The two shadows quickly fell down and stood in front of everyone again.

——Umbrella Holder.

He held a gray humanoid corpse in his hand and sighed: "It took some effort and finally killed the snooping guy. Now let's continue the previous topic."

There was silence.

Everyone looked at him without blinking, but no one rushed to take action.

The umbrella holder asked curiously: "Have you given up on your struggle?"

He turned his eyes and looked at Liu Ping, shook his head, then looked at the infant girl, and said with a smile: "Forget it, a group of ants is nothing, I will solve your problem first."

The next moment.

The emperor suddenly shouted: "Evil thing, you killed my queen and caused trouble to the people of the world. Now you have fallen into a trap. I want to avenge this deep hatred."

"You?" the umbrella holder said disdainfully.

The emperor looked at him deeply and said, "Have you not always coveted the secrets of this world? I will let you get your wish."

The words fell.

The umbrella holder suddenly said in shock and anger: "What did you do?"

His whole body sank into the ground and disappeared from everyone's eyes in just an instant.

There was a moment of silence.

Some people couldn't help but ask: "Is this solved?"

The emperor said: "It's solved. The evil thing is sealed in an unknown place and will never come out."

Looking at everyone's confused expressions, the emperor explained: "There is actually a huge seal hidden in our world. The evil creature sensed the power of the seal and thought there would be some treasure here, but in fact it was just a moth flying into the flame."

All the leaders were digested for a while.

No one has ever known about this kind of thing, and the royal family has never said anything about it.

Even today, the emperor only said this sentence.

"Preach my will!"

The emperor said again:

"The leader of all evil has been put to death. All sects must strike while the iron is hot to wipe out the evil in the world and restore the world to normal operation."

"yes!"

All the officials bowed and saluted.

The emperor added: "The palace is now safe. Please go to the masters immediately to rescue those masters who are still fighting against the evil creatures, so as not to kill them."

"It should be so." All the masters said in unison.

Since the emperor and princess no longer had to worry about their safety, the leaders hurriedly left the palace and flew in all directions of the capital.

——I have a lot of work to do tonight.

At this time, there were only a few servants left in the palace, and they quickly received the mission to settle various affairs.

Liu Ping had been silent since just now. Only then did he wipe the cold sweat from his forehead and his eyes began to wander.

Some people were busy removing demons, some were busy arranging the injured in the palace, and some were busy serving the emperor and princess, but——

Is it true that no one can see this scene?

Liu Ping took a deep breath and tried hard to control his gaze, preventing it from looking towards the ground.

After the emperor activated the barrier——

When the Umbrella Man strikes again, the world begins to look different.

The earth gradually becomes transparent, like a thin layer of water. When you step on it, ripples will spread out from under your feet.

The solid land has turned into an endless ocean, and everyone is standing on the ocean without knowing it.

What everyone turns a blind eye to is——

Liu Ping stood in the vast ocean, lowered his head and looked under the water, and he could see another scene——

Densely packed coffins are buried deep in the water, densely covering the entire underwater world, spreading ever deeper.

But in the deepest part of the water, a sky appeared, filled with stars.

——With the water surface as the boundary, there is another world under the water!

When the umbrella-holder fell down, corpses appeared one after another from the coffins in the underwater world.

These grotesque corpses rushed to the surface and grabbed the umbrella holder and dragged him down.

The umbrella holder has no means to deal with it!

It wanted to struggle, but its power seemed to be blocked, and it was quickly pulled into the world below.

The corpses put it into a coffin and carried it toward the depths of the world.

Liu Ping looked at the vast ocean beneath his feet, and then at the busy people around him.

——Can’t you see even a little bit?

"Liu Ping!" the emperor suddenly said.

Liu Ping trembled and said quickly: "I'm here."

While speaking, he remembered something again and quickly glanced into the void.

There is nothing in the void.

The Heroic Spirit operating interface rarely remained silent.

The emperor smiled and said: "Gift."

The official next to him immediately presented a knife.

Liu Ping saluted, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward."

"You're welcome. There are few warriors in various sects who care about the people of the world like you. This move is deeply appreciated by me. You deserve the sword. Take it." The emperor said.

Liu Ping took the long knife as instructed.

This knife has some ancient meaning, and Liu Ping felt some indescribable feeling as soon as he took it.

It's just like--

Familiarity.

Two lines of burning small characters jumped out quickly and floated in the void:

"Knife name: Baina."

"No attributes."

No attributes!

There is no weapon in the world without attributes!

Even a simple long knife will show various basic attributes such as sharp, slightly sharp, broken, and intact.

Liu Ping was shocked and glanced at the emperor and the officials beside him, only to see that they looked normal.

"This sword has been the sword of the royal family since ancient times. When you hold it, you represent the royal family. You are not ranked with other guards and are dedicated to protecting the princess." The emperor warned.

"Yes!" Liu Ping quickly said, cupping his fists.

"Okay, take him down to rest and start serving the princess tomorrow." The emperor said to the officials around him.

The official smiled and said, "Liu Wei, please follow me."

"Thank you."

Liu Ping followed the official and walked out.

Mizuki's voice suddenly sounded in his ears:

"Did you see something?"

"Yes, what about you?" Liu Ping said quickly.

"I have lost all my strength now, but because of the companionship of the Unfettered Pupil, I can see the strange scenes of the world - how about it? Have you noticed that the water in this world is very deep?" Mizuki said.

"It's so deep that it's a bit penetrating." Liu Ping replied.

"Come to me tomorrow and we'll discuss it in the long term." Mizuki said.

"good."

Liu Ping responded and followed the official out of the emperor's palace.
